Lenovo s650 custom roms

If any one is interested, i know a couple of you may be very intersted !!
I found this link someone posted on need rom, from 4PDA site, for the s650, these roms are custom based from CN roms which include MIUI , LEWA and AOSP !!
EDIT 10 / 5 / 14: New roms have been added and updates to LEWA and MIUI, also a couple of ROW based roms in there too !!
EDIT 15 / 5 / 14: All roms confirmed to be working fully with dual sim !!
All seem to be good and working , i am still testing and have got stuck on AOSP, I love it !! It is smooth and fast,and for first release on all these roms extremely good with a very promising future !!!!
They are all in development stage still but, in particular the AOSP is particularly stable, the only fault seems to be notification light not working for missed calls and messages !!! MINIMAL PROBLEM !!!
If only i could join these forums to thank the guys for their hard work !!
Problem is the verification code to join, needs to be in Russian, so i can't !!!
Here is the link, ENJOY !!!!!
ALL LINKS FOR ROMS ARE OPEN TO GUEST USERS !!
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=567114
So far my impression of the AOSP is very good, the only slightly annoying thing is that after a long call the screen does not wake automatically, you must press the power button, otherwise really good !!!!
Just started testing LEWA and so far looks good, a couple of things to note:
After first boot leave it to settle for a few minutes and then reboot, if you don't a lot of the toggles in settings do not work !!!
Dual sim settings in main setting menu do not seem to work, i tried the sim in both sim 1 and sim 2 slots and they work as they should but i don't know about 2 sims together !! (TESTER NEEDED FOR THIS )
Will continue testing and move on to MIUI later , so more posts / issues and request for testers on dual sim use will follow !!
OK, so apart from the already mentioned issue with dual sim management, the LEWA rom is actually very good, everything seems to work and the interface is very clean and easy to use, with smooth graphics !
The MIUI rom also has the issue with dual sim management, it is not obvious if it works or not, the feature in settings only shows the card in use ( TESTER NEEDED TO TRY 2 SIMS ), otherwise works very well, the things i don't like so much are, trying to figure out the root manager ( seems to be on all MIUI roms ) and the annoying WI-FI only pop up everytime you try to download or if it thinks it is too big for data, which happens to be everything over about 2 mb !!!
The AOSP rom, seems to be working great except for notification LED not working and poor battery life, it seems that the dual sim function is OK, the warning is in notification drawer that no sim in slot 2 and each slot works individually ( TESTER NEEDED FOR 2 SIMS TOGETHER ) i am really hoping battery life will be fixed somewhere in development but it does seem to be a problem with AOSP roms specifically , so i am not optimistic !!
The AOSP is exactly as expected, pure android look and feel, very fast, light on the system and without all the overwhelming features of some roms, i do like it but battery drain is a real minus for me !!!
If you like MIUI roms and are used to the features, it is great if not i would try the LEWA rom for something similar to VIBEUI !! Go with the AOSP if you want simple, stock android, light on the system and very easy to use !!!!

thanks for the info. I do not have a backup phone so please let us know if dual sim is functional for the AOSP. I really hate the default ROW ROM.

It appears to be, the warning is there to the tell me that no card is insim2 slot and both slots work separately , I just have not tried both together !!! Worst case is going back to ROW if it doesn't work, bear in mind these are only first release customs so they should become more functional with development !!
The downside with AOSP is battery life, seems to drain twice as fast but seems to be a typical AOSP thing !!!

Batter battery drain is a show stopper for me. My current Rom is fine with battery. I just want to run plain vanilla ROM. My gf doesn't need the extra crap they installed. I wish there was a Linux or Mac way of rooting. I don't run Windows, but if I have to dual boot, I guess I don't have a choice.

If there is flash tool for mac or linux you can actually load TWRP using flash tool and root through TWRP !??
Just make sure if you are with ROW download ROW recovery and CN for CN roms !!
Once you have chosen the scatter file in flash tool, tick DA DL ALL box at the top !
Click on the RECOVERY line, this will open up a window so that you can choose which recovery.
Choose the TWRP recovery you downloaded and then proceed with the flash procedure as normal.
Once finished reboot the phone.
Now power down
Now power on holding volume up and down together, release power button only on vibrate, this will boot recovery
You should see TWRP reovery, go to wipes / advanced wipe wipe cache and dalvik
Now go back to main menu and choose reboot, you should see a prompt that SUPERUSER IS NOT INSTALLED, JUST SLIDE THE BAR TO INSTALL
Now once the phone is rebooted you will see superuser icon on screen, click it and it will tell you to update, easiest is via play store ( make sure you added account ) , it will tell you upgrade success and tell you to update binary, do this too and now you are rooted

Awesome, hope the will be more progress on the AOSP rom.

Yeah, me too, i have been using it for a couple of days and it really is good, the battery does even out a bit after a couple of charges but not nearly as good as the battery life on stock Jelly bean rom, getting about 15-20%% less life !!
I have mentioned somewhere before that during 6 hours intense use on internet, testing GPS, bluetooth and downloading 2 rom zip files at 600mb each, on stock 4.2.2 rom still had about 50% left on battery but on this AOSP rom during exactly the same use it went down to 31% !!

Waiting for a 4.4.2 AOSP
Sent from my Lenovo S650 using Tapatalk

The 4.4.2. stock rom is still in development, so my guess is they are waiting for a more stable version to use for custom, it does take time and i honestly think there will be something by about July / August, provided everything goes well !!

Everything stable and working fine after a week using 1417 dev

Is there an AOSP ROW?
Sent from my Lenovo S650 using Tapatalk

Hi bluerichblue. I know you've been around the block with the current released ROMs. I found out that ROW is required for other because of the different languages. I only need EN so I can install any ROM correct?
The original ROM I got for this unit had some anti-malware / AV installed which resulted the unit lagging. Especially when it lists the text messages and opening texts. I restore to the S650_S119_131014 form needrom and it had the stripped down ROM that only has a few 3rd party apps and GAPPS included. The S650_S119_131014 is very light weight and the battery lasts longer than a day for heavy texting and and ligh calls. I was impressed! The only problem I have with the S650_S119_131014 ROM is that it has some Chinese characters in the text app and a few other minor Chinese characters on a few other places. It's not a show stopper though.
have you encountered other custom ROMs that have all English in it?

Yes you can install any rom, if you are using flash tool it is a straight forward flash, if you use TWRP you must make sure that you have the corresponding recovery installed, that means if you want to go from CN to ROW you need ROW TWRP installed even on the CN rom !!
Also the same in reverse, if you want to go from ROW to CN you need to install CN recovery even on ROW rom to flash !!
The reason is the partitions are different, on ROW roms you will have about 5gb allocated to apps space but on CN only 2.8gb !!
The ROW roms have been tweaked so the Chinese is not there and the AOSP is proper English !!
Hope this helps !!!

Are you talking about AOSP OS 4.2.2 R-V0.11.2 ROW - old? I'm assuming there is no AOSP version that matches the latest official *VibeUI* rom right?

Yes the version of AOSP you saw is correct but so far no AOSP for the latest KitKat version,
The latest release for VibeUI is a stable CN version so i am guessing they will start on ROW versions now and hopefully some of the Russian developers will pick it up and start developing custom KitKat for us but saying that Mediatek roms are known for having different dependencies which are meant to be a pain to work with and with the partitions in KitKat being different, could be a while before we get something !!

You need to use the ROW TWRP even if you are on a CN rom , as the partitions are different and the recoveries are set for specific partition !!

8.6.1 weekly
I have been using the 8.6.1 build for 2 days now. Very happy with it everything seems to work fine. I just wanted to let everyone know it boots fast, and will even boot with a custom kernel. I would like to request the option for data speed in status bar if possible. Xposed works dine for me i have android l navbar and youtube adaway even gravity box only for the data traffix monitor but it wouldnt even show up. I tried another xposed module but it was no good either. If there is another way can some please let me know?
In advance thank you greatly.

Hi,
I'm on slimkat 8.6.1. Is anyone having issues with latest version of viber - calling or specifically the mic? Calls get disconnected automatically or the other person can't hear me. It seems that this issue with viber and custom Roms has been going on for a while.
Hopefully someone has a fix or work around. Thanks.

any chance for dual sim

This thread doesn't seem very active. I think it's more clutter to have a different thread just for questions. Was this something the Admins decided or was it asked for by the Slim thread maintainer?

back button behavior
Love this ROM. Thank you.
I'm experiencing strange behavior with the back button. For now I can only report that it happens in Chrome.
After following a few links on a site I tap the back button I hear what sounds like a double-tap. Instead of going back one page in the history it opens a new blank tab.
I really like using the phone's back button, particularly since Chrome moved its back button to the settings menu.
I've noticed that when I remove the button and then add it back it acts as it should.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm having an issue on the latest nightly where I can't pull down the notification/quick settings menu in portrait mode
It works in landscape and portrait with other ROMS
It is enabled

Have you done a clean flash? Are you running any xposed modules?

yes
it was a clean flash, full format
no exposed modules

WiFi issues with Build 8.8.x
i also figured that problem.
The solution for me was to set an manual/static IP, it seem DHCP got an issue.
For me that fixed the Problem. I can imagine if the Network is not in the area 192.168.1.x causes the problem .

Any chance for Dual Support?
I wanna give slimrom a try, but I´m on xt1033. Any chance for MSIM support?
Thanks a lot!

Hi guys, i was using Moto stock kitkat 4.4.4, l made a backup and installed succefully SlimKat. Now l want to restore to Moto stock KitKat and does not boot. I'm using TWRP 2.8.4.0 and the restore is succesfull. But when system start it just shows de google logo with the lock unlocked. And stays there forever. I made all the wipes carefully. The good thing is that when I restore the image of SlimKat that I made it works and my phone is fully operational, but not with Moto stock kitkat.
Any ideas?

SlimKat ROM
Hello everyone,
I've been using Slimkat successfully for a few months now. Had some issues with my HTC One M8 and wanted to do a clean install. Still had the original files on my sdcard so I just went in, wiped data cache/factory reset then wiped dalvik (I use Philz for recovery) and then loaded up the original zip and gapps zip file. Now I'm stuck in a boot loop. I give it 15 minutes and I'm still stuck on the SlimKat loading screen. I remember it taking a few minutes the first time I did it but not this long. Any suggestions?

Burst mode bug in camera!
hello,
I've been using cm 11 for a while now and one thing i have noticed to be really buggy is the camera,
when you set in the burst mode let's say 5 shots; instead of capturing 5 images instantaneously it focuses for every shot! and the whole meaning of burst mode is lost in the process. please do look into this issue in the next build.

It's not a bug, it's in your set up. When you go into the camera settings, go to "Focus Mode". It should give you an option called something like "fixed" or "continuous", etc. That'll keep it from refocusing between shots.

did not work.

Sharp Battery Drain
hi,
I've installed the latest build of CM11 by @thehurricaneguy coming from the older build of CM11 from the previous thread by @alteredlikeness.
Now after installing this build it the main problem for me was the battery sharply drains to 20% from 50-40%, i thought it was a battery problem and bought a new one it's the same for the new battery too, i thought i was the only one as it seems that was not the case.
Main problem starts here. i'm running CM11 on system 3 and it some how affected jb leak 3 too :C, i now have two batteries that drain to 20% from 50-40% on BOTH ROM's , after this issue I've deleted the system 3 and now run on 4.1.2 but the drainage remained the same.
i wiped the battery stats, cache, Dalvik Cache many times hoping that might fix it but to no avail.
>>>"I accidentally Erased my CID a long time Ago"<<<
i'm scared of doing a factory Reset and losing BMM ending up with a Bricked Phone, could any one help me resolve this battery drainage issue and how to restore CID with out a back up copy.
thank you

Hey there yes this will work with any region Atrix2, just make sure you install and use Boot Menu Manager to flash it. Follow all instructions given on how to flash it in the CM11 thread and there are guides here on how to setup BMM for ready use. Good luck!

Are we going to have any more updates of this ROM or should I flash the 11/15 ROM???

yeah it will work. i was getting all kinds of errors in twrp(red text and errors and stuff) my phone wouldn't even do a twrp back up. i guess it's from coming from cm11s bliss pop and etc. so i'm sure i had lots of stuff that needed to be deleted.

Didn't the rom posted on the oneplus forum have issues? When I loaded it up it was not good enough to be a daily driver. This one is so it seems there are changes

still cannot get this to boot
wiped internal storage. clean flash. I think it's a radio issue or something to that effect anytime I try to connect to the radio for a cell servicein my case T Mobile it reboots

This Rom have Privacy Guard?

I did as suggested last weekend
I have installed the 44s extras and installed clean. Also wiped internal storage I just kept boot looping as well. No matter what I did I would boot loop.

My phone rebooted constantly every time after I flashed the rom, I tried different versions of TWRP, your Extras.zip, wiping internal storage :/ the device mostly restarts while booting, though I came several times even into language settings

What config is used to compile this kernel?

ART
I tried ART and got some weird stuff, like the power button short press not working and airplane mode seemingly stuck on. Went back to dalvik...just a heads up

Try version 4 of the toolkit.
That worked for me.
Also, make sure you do exactly as the desctiption says, don't change the order of actions (as i did) because then it will not work.
First make sure that you pc has the right drivers (or use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979)
Then use v4 from this link and use the right order (http://en.miui.com/thread-117336-1-1.html)
So first TWRP then root (if you still need it).

Mi4i going into bootloop after flashing CM based roms!
I have tried almost all of the custom roms(latest ones) available for Xiomi mi 4i but neither of them actually worked for me. Whenever i flash the roms, it gets installed correctly and when it asks for language selection, it shuts off. I have tried flashing with both twrp and cwm, cleared cache, dalvik cache but problem never solved. I think the CM has some serious problems with this devices.

Mine is not directly going into boot loop.
Sometimes it works a few minutes (up to 20 or so), but it will shut down.
When connected to power it does NOT shut down, but still.
I tried yesterday the CM 12.1 version from Smoki3 from july 30th and that seems to work, but i did not have any time any more, so i had to restore my nadroid backup.
Will try it later again (maybe tomorrow) if that really does work, or if it was just to short time for it to shut down.

I think I was using developer rom and flashed CM on it directly so the problem occured. I read somewhere on a forum that you should flash it on global rom. I tried it with ASOPA-L rom as it was having the same problem and it worked flawlessly. Now going to try it with latest CM rom.
One thing I noticed the camera quality is better in ASOPA-L but this rom lacks performance mode.

I'm experiencing bad speaker sound after installing this ROM. Is there any way to fix that.

I'm absolutely loving this rom. I've no idea why xiaomi let's miui be so slow and laggy. This room feels great and everything runs/opens so much faster and it looks fantastic. Cmon Xiaomi, step up your game, miui is way too heavy.
Like other people have mentioned, the only downside to not having miui is the camera. I've tried a bunch of others and the quality is greatly reduced compared to the miui camera. Please someone, please port miui 6 camera!!! PLEASE!! I'll be your best friend.

Whenever i boot ..it turns off...pls hlp
Thanks in advance

hey guys,
i cannot get the CWP installed or the TWRP .... i cannot find the link to download and get the phone into the recovery and install the new rom,
please provide me the links and i will try the rom.
ps: i have tried the TWRP TOOLKIT VERSION 3 , BUT BECAUSE I AM IN THE LATEST MIUI VERSION IT DOESN NOT INSTALL THE TWRP, I HAVE TRIED IT MANY TIMES. ALSO THE VIDEO ON YOUTUBE THAT SAYS THE TWRP TOOLKIT VERSION 4 is redirecting to spam websites,
also i am trying to log in in miui but i have forgot my details and there isnt a reset link ! i am getting despert!!!!

i also experienced the same problem when i was on miui 7 beta... i was able to flash twrp recovery but failed to flash custom ROMs... after that i reverted back to miui6 6.6.10.0 by using fastboot... and then again flashed twrp using mi toolkit v4 and succeeded in flashing custom ROM... this works 100%.Keep in mind that u can't flash a custom ROM..if u r on later version of 6.6.10.0
